Looks like I'm going to be taking mine off the road next weekend to rebuild the engine. Lots of little things that I'd like to tackle all at once

-Bad valve stem seals (puffs blue every startup!)
-Clacking lifters
-Leaky rear main seal
-Stock (but still OK) HG that needs upgrading

I figure I might as well pull the motor, and just give'r on it. As it stands now I think I'm gonna do the works

Metal Gasket (HKS/Greddy/Cometic ... any opinions on which is best?)
ARP everything (head blots, main studs, rod bolts)
Oil pump
Ross pistons (of $$ permits)

Sounds like a fun time, and a hell of a lot of machine shop work Anybody have preferences on shops or know of guys that have experience with supra heads?

...startin' to sound like a big chunk to chew!
